Padraig has the following analysis:

It looks to me that the stuttering is happening because the write thread is
writing silent samples to the audio device. This is happening because there
does not seem to be a way to tell the write thread that there is not data in
the ring buffer available for writing.

If the ring buffer is big enough,  the buffer in the audio device is filled up
before the silent samples are reached and the write call blocks until all the
data has been written to the audio device. In this case stuttering does not
occur.
